Goof afternoon all - unfortunately do to a very high and fast flowing river, with more rain on the way, this evenings training has been cancelled. Hopefully see you all next week. πŸ˜πŸ‰πŸ²

Well it's weather for the ducks, but unfortunately not for the Dragons. Training was cancelled yesterday due to unfavourable river conditions and as it stands at the moment the river is too high and the current is still too fast.

Levi Maher Njadayi will check the conditions again tomorrow afternoon and make an announcement in the group WhatsApp to let members know whether or not tomorrow's training session will go ahead.

In the meanwhile, keep yourselves warm and dry and think of sunnier times πŸ˜‰πŸ²πŸ‰

Well, after a long Winter, The Barrow Dragons were back out on the water yesterday. Fantastic to see two full boats from the first session back. Was great to welcome back all the familiar faces and a few new ones too. See you all again tomorrow for another glorious evening on the water.

We always welcome new members and offer 4 free taster sessions before they decide to join. For anyone interested in trying out the Dragonboat they must contact Lynn on 0878478470 the day before arriving. This enables us to have enough helms and boats ready. The prospective members designated ADULT must be present at these taster sessions.

The clubs AGM is Friday the 28th of March 7.30pm in our hub for anyone who would like to come along.

Our first Regatta of the season is the Athy Regatta Sunday the 4th of May.

What a lovely morning we had for our πŸŽ…Santa Paddle πŸŽ…today. Well done to all the juniors and seniors who turned out in their festive gear to have a little paddle and some carol singing on the River. The juniors even had a very special visit from the main man himself who informed them all that they have been very good boys and girls and are all on the nice list.

Thanks so much to all the parents who helped out today and all through the season, Santa said you can have a Baileys on him.

πŸŽ…WISHING YOU ALL A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS AND PEACEFULVAND SAFE NEW YEAR πŸŽ…
